I get really peeved at stuff like this. There's no real freedom of speech now on the Internet because if your blog or website is a .com or the servers are in the US you get subjected to US law even if what you're saying isn't aimed at US citizens or in English or illegal in the country in which you're writing it.

Witness the British student who had a website which directed people to other websites where they could download TV for free. He wasn't in the US, wasn't aiming his content at US citizens, he wasn't doing anything illegal in UK, and had no actual copyrighted material on his website but hey he's being extradited to the US just for putting links up. Google Richard O'Dwyer.. and the extradition legislation is really one-sided in favour of the US and was designed to make it easier to extradite terrorists.. not one terrorist so far..

This is infuriating, but the cynical side of me isn't surprised. Open access to information is always going to come under assault one way or another. For the primal/paleo community, it's either going to be something like this - a pre-emptive move by incumbent interests, or it's going to be a pack of lawyers suing everyone and their brother for eleventy-kajillion dollars when someone following 'the caveman diet' dies of a heart attack.
Amazing that doctors are heavily protected from malpractice, the ADA and their ilk are responsible for advocating 'nutrition' that results in poor health and escalating medical costs at a staggering scale and are de-facto immune from liability, but you just know that any blogger out there is vulnerable to liability lawsuits due to the lack of official status.

The next logical step is the ADA suing ME for not following their advice, thereby depriving them of additional revenue opportunities.

Here's the thing, though. North Carolina has legislation that says if you are going to CHARGE for nutrition advice you have to be licensed. This guy wasn't just blogging about his nutrition experiences and giving out free advice, he had a section where he was charging people money for it. That's what put him in the cross hairs.
